Backyard pool
I haven't posted forever, but have thought about it everyday. :) Last Saturday was so nice so I had Monty get Jaida a little pool. We took it to Misty's house and just put it in the driveway. The water was so cold that no one wanted to get in it. Sunday I filled up the pool in our backyard with hot water from inside and cold water from the hose. She was having fun and I would have stayed out there with her but the smell of dog pee was just too overpowering! The next time I looked out there she had the hose and was watering the dirt - where the dogs use the bathroom. Monty had just cleaned the backyard on Saturday, but it was still REALLY digusting for me to watch her walk on the dirt. I told her to get back on the sidewalk and when she wouldn't I turned off the water. That made her mad, so she got back in her pool and played for awhile. I looked outside again and she was back on the dirt. This time when I told her to come back she ran over to some poop and was yelling, "Go away" to the flies! Yuck! I didn't have my shoes on and refused to go get her so I just had to watch her yell at the flies to "go away." As soon as I got her onto the cement I picked her up and put her in the bathtub. I knew I shouldn't have gotten a pool.
